The more I think about it the more I'm starting to believe the 8GB ram 16GB ram split. I don't think anybody would of suspected that so not just an educated guess like other leaks and the 7nm PS4 also being in the leak and now more or less confirmed by Sony. It also makes sense with the Ryzen 2 CPU obviously needing more bandwidth.
Well, this isn't baseless rumour but don't know of better place to put it. PS5 is more than a year away.

I would hope this towers over the idea that they have finalized devkits that were concealed at the wired interview.
OK this is the first time I've heard of it, does put things in perspective for me now
. Regardless of how powerful Snek is, an 8 TF PS5 would be highly, highly, highly disappointing even if at $399. In theory it barely does more than rendering native 4k PS4 games. I'm hoping with all these billions of profit Sony has earned lately they'd go all out and don't skimp on the specs.
I don't remember that, but I do remember a lot of Sony fans going on about an over 8TF PS 4Pro and all the other secret sauces it had.
Come on. Even B3D made the official scorpio thread based on that.

I'm old. I barely remember what material or color the PS5 devkit container was.
I only remember my ptsd triggers of the great fanboy wars.
Oh... You're talking about Sega and Nintendo, and the likes of Texan? That's a name I've not heard in a long time.
Might I suggest an attempt at liquid medication to supress such horrible times?
Polished Vibranium. No noise whatsoever.
lol what a trip down memory lane; well fought too, 145 pages. Damn
Doesn't seem like it was taken seriously.
edit: I mocked it with rounding/precision error. NeVermindME :VTime to let it go. :V

We did a pretty quick dismissal of each points here though.
We need rumors like AMD co-designed their RT solution with Sony's help and Sony has exclusive use of 'next gen' architecture till 2021. [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3][emoji3]
So the implication of Sony and AMD co developing hardware Raytracing means it's a PS5 exclusive feature then? I've heard recent talks of MS using DirectX "software duh" Raytracing for their Scarlett consoles so in a sense this fits the narrative. Let's assuming this is true then Snek would have the extra silicon room for more Tflops for sure if using the same chip. Probably not unreasonable to assume at least 14TF. This should also imply Navi is way more power efficient than Radeon 7, but hey I need more evidence to convince me, after all this is from an untrusted source.

Speaking of Raytracing, if it´s the next big thing. (which it is) and Nvidia it´s pushing it in the market right now, What would be the point of devoting resources towards a solution just for Sony, and not integrating it in your hardware portfolio from now on.
If you have something better in the pipeline why not offer it in the first place
